"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

It’s been a disappointing week on the Rule 5 front. All the actresses and models who normally get all excited about great social movements have fallen oddly silent this week, which I guess is better than the disgusting slurping on Chairman Xi’s microwiener currently being performed by the NBA and Blizzard, and as an ongoing perversion by Disney, Nike, Apple, and other supposedly American corporations. I don’t know, maybe while I was suspended from Twitter last night I missed Alyssa Milano’s heartfelt plea for freedom in Hong Kong, but somehow I doubt it. So this week, we’re going to again choose cute over pretty, and present the newest mascot of the Hong Kong protesters, Mei from the game Overwatch, which is very popular in America and Red China both. Mei’s background is Chinese, so it was almost inevitable that she’d be seized on as a symbol of freedom. Here’s one of the propaganda posters whipped up by online supporters of the Hong Kong protesters.
On a happier note, Ninety Miles From Tyranny brings us Hot Pick of the Late Night, The 90 Miles Mystery Box Episode #769, Morning Mistress, and Girls With Guns. At Animal Magnetism, it’s Rule Five Persistence Hunting Friday and the Saturday Gingermageddon.
